Once MS was ruled out by my neurologist and the MS specialist in the area, my PCP diagnosed Fibromyalgia on 9/30/2014. I am seeing a rheumatologist and he is currently trying to get the nerves in my brain to calm down enough at night so I can rest.

I went to my PCP for my physical and he asked if my rheumy had me on methotrexate yet. ???? I was confused. As he went about doing my physical, we were talking about keeping my joints mobile and he even suggested an electric blanket and warming my bed before bedtime and when I am watching TV. He ended up explaining that the tests for the markers for RA were on the higher side of normal and suggesting retesting. He said he would not be surprised at all if my rheumy put me on methotrexate and/or plaquenil in June when I follow up with him. He also said he knows I am unable to exercise due to the Fibro, but do all I can to keep my joints mobile.

God never leads us into any storm without holding our hand and guiding us through that storm!
